Register Description
AMD
6–20
Bit 2: Disable Lower Chain
The Disable Lower Chain can be used by the CPU to control the interrupt daisy chain.
Setting this bit to ‘1’ forces the IEO pin Low, preventing lower-priority devices on the daisy
chain from requesting interrupts. This bit is reset by a hardware reset.
Bit 1: No Vector
The No Vector bit controls whether or not the SCC will respond to an interrupt acknowl-
edge cycle by placing a vector on the data bus if the SCC is the highest-priority device
requesting an interrupt. If this bit is set, no vector is returned; i.e., D0–D7 remain three-
stated during an interrupt acknowledge cycle, even if the SCC is the highest-priority de-
vice requesting an interrupt.
Bit 0: Vector Includes Status
The Vector Includes Status bit controls whether or not the Z-SCC will include status infor-
mation in the vector it places on the bus in response to an interrupt acknowledge cycle. If
this bit is set, the vector returned is variable, with the variable field depending on the high-
est-priority IP that is set. Table 6–4 shows the encoding of the status information. This bit
is ignored if the No Vector (NV) bit is set and does not apply if RR2 is read from Chan-
nelB.

Write Register 10 (Misc ellaneous T ransmitter/
Rec eiver Control Bits)
WR10 contains miscellaneous control bits for both the receiver and the transmitter. Bit
positions for WR10 are shown in Figure 6–11. This register is readable by executing a
read to RR11 when D0 of WR15 and D6 of WR7’ are set to ‘1’.
